Time Capsule - Journaling Tool
The experiences of our past influence our experience of the present. Through
journaling, we can intentionally explore these influences and work with them to
our advantage.
“How we see and hold the full range of our experiences in our minds and in our
hearts makes an enormous difference in the quality of this journey we are on,
and what it means to us. It can influence where we go, what happens, what we
learn, and how we feel along the way.”
– Jon Kabat-Zinn
The Time Capsule is similar to Captured Moments except that it allows you to
chronicle a longer period of time. Sort the wheat from the chaff and record your
experiences rather than just the facts of a specific event or time period.
Preserve the richness of your memories.
EXERCISES
Getting started:
- Pick a holiday you enjoyed and write about the quality of your experience. Did
you feel excitement, trepidation, relief, anxiety, awe…? Describe as accurately
as you can how you felt throughout your holiday.
Go deeper:
- Review how you spent most of your time this past month, whether it was at a
job, working for yourself or at home, or in leisure or retirement. Explore and
describe the qualities of your experience.
Reach higher:
- Write about the details of what you most loved and/or did not love in your
childhood.
“Every man's memory is his private literature.”
– Aldous Huxley
